“Our holiday was lovely.”

Despite the weather the large sitting room with 3 vistas from the windows provided tremendous relaxation when we could not venture outside.

Despite the weather the large sitting room with 3 vistas from the windows provided tremendous relaxation when we could not venture outside. The only spoiling feature was your failure to provide basic information on how to operate the equipment. Also we felt your attitude to the heating was poor. Even in early winter in October people do need to have the heating on from time to time. This is NOT a complaint - it is merely pointing out the obvious. Regards Andrew and Sheila Cole

“Property was lovely and in fantastic location.”

Shame there was no recycling. Some extra toilet rolls and a bin bag would been appreciated. All in all a great stay.
Mr Moody July 2019

“We've been booking holidays with you for about 15 years, this year it felt as though something changed and it wasn't quite so good - property wasn't cleaned to the usual standard, no welcome pack, no preferential booking for the same week next year.”

We've always felt that your company was truly excellent, this year it felt a bit average. Also confused as to whether you're still Coast and Country or have been taken over by Sykes Cottages and whether Coast and Country is now just a brand of this bigger company, hence the changes we noticed ?

Thank you for your recent feedback and please accept our apologies that you felt the property was not cleaned up to standard, we work hard with our cleaners and owners to maintain our very high standards and your feedback has been passed on to the relevant department. For your future reference, please let us know upon your arrival if you are unhappy with any aspect of the property. There have been some changes made since we merged with Sykes but we are still the bespoke Coast and Country Cottages and will continue to maintain our excellent customer service as always, we look forward to welcoming you back to Devon.

Bungalow in great location, spectacular views this is our second stay at the Look Out and hopefully will stay again in the future
Mr Tate December 2018

“We loved the lookout - it was cosy and spacious and the location was great.”

Hope Cove is a lovely spot! My only suggestion is that in previous cottages that we have stayed in at Christmas time, there has been a Christmas tree, but this is a very minor quibble!
“Excellent location with beautiful views and lovely terrace to sit.”

I thought the bungalow could have been cleaner. There were a few corners with cobwebs and dust. One bathroom needs updating. My husband thought the garden was rather overgrown and needed more care and pruning etc but I thought the garden nice. I would stay in this bungalow again.

Many thanks for your feedback in respect of your chosen property, The Look Out, in Hope Cove. We were disappointed to read that the property was not satisfactorily presented prior to your arrival and have passed on your comments to the housekeeping/caretaking team. Looking forward to welcoming you back to Hope Cove again soon. Sykes owner relations
“We were told there was a king size bed - there was not - just two singles put together.”

The bed linen we had ordered was not there when we arrived and all the beds were soft. We don't need backcare beds but the springs on these seem quite slack! The omission with the bed linen was quickly and pleasantly rectified.
“Always clean and welcoming”
“Nice bungalow, but not very welcoming.”

Little touches go a long way. Welcome to the look out from the owners! Maybe a bottle of wine or bread, milk etc. something. We paid top rate as bank holiday but we will think twice about re-booking.
“Superb property in wonderful location.”

Large lounge with panoramic views and brilliant sun-trap terrace. Well equipped kitchen, good-sized dining room and bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms. Easy access to coastal path. First class.

“It was so easy to deal with Coast and Country Cottages.”

Their booking system is easy and they are always available to sort out any queries straight away. We had a super holiday in a lovely property which was very comfortable, clean and well maintained. We hope to be back next year.

“The lookout is in a wonderful position.”

Loved the view. The house was clean and tidy. It is in the process of being updated. But was still comfortable and what we needed. Having WFI and a telephone for calls was very helpful.

“"The Look Out" is in a perfect location for those of us who enjoy walking the coastal path and/or going to the beach, both of which are just a short walk from the house.”

It is very spacious with the bonus of having 3 bathrooms, ample parking and a large garden area, ideal for us as 2 grandparents travelling with our daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandsons (aged 5 & 2). The house is very well equipped throughout. Our only complaint is the beds, which were very uncomfortable; the mattresses on all must be of a poor quality as they were very soft and dipped badly in the middle. The children didn't mind but all of the adults suffered from lack of sleep (which was nothing to do with the children!) :) One other very minor negative, was that although a very handy barbecue grill is provided, no barbecue tools are supplied.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback in respect of your recent stay at The Look Out in Hope Cove. We were so pleased to hear that you enjoyed an excellent holiday in such a lovely location- it sounds like the property suited you very well. Your comments regarding the beds and barbecue tools have been passed onto the owner, and our team will also investigate during our next changeover. Thanks again for your review, we look hope to welcome you back to Hope Cove again soon. Sykes owner relations

About the location

HOPE COVE

Salcombe 4.6 miles; Kingsbridge 5.1 miles

The picturesque and unspoiled village of Hope Cove lies in the sheltered curve of Bigbury Bay on Devon’s south coast. A choice destination for families, the two beaches offering soft sand and rock pools for sandcastle building and fishing for small crabs. The town remains a fishing village where crabs and lobsters are still landed, however it was once used by smugglers. Many ships have perished around the coast and the wrecks that lie beneath the waves make it a popular spot for divers. Above the beach there are a number of pubs and restaurants. The coastal footpath can be joined from here and leads towards Bigbury-on-sea in one direction and the coastal resort of Salcombe in the other.
